This looks amazing!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
:)!
I’m ready!! Let’s do this 🙂
Just about to do the last workout of September and I’m excited to start the October workout!! I was wondering…I feel like I have lost some of the ab definition I got while doing your summer shape up program and I was wondering if you had suggestions for specific ab workouts/an ab routine that would go well with the workouts for this month or any other kind of suggestions??
Thank you, excited about the new calendar!!
hey!! really nutrition has the biggest impact on ab definition. check out your eats and see if there’s anything you may be able to tweak. so happy you’ve been enjoying the calendars!
I’m not new to fitness or regular workouts, but after following your September workout plan I feel strong and fit for the first time in a long time! Workouts have never made my body feel this good! Thank you for creating these calendars. As a mama it is so much easier for me to workout at home, and you have made the workouts fun and very effective 🙂 I can’t wait to start the October plan!
Love these monthly calendars! Thank you Gina!
so happy you like them!
Yay! Happy October! I LOVE this month 🙂
I was slightly panicking that I wasn’t going to know what my workout schedule would be after the september calendar ended so THANK YOU!! I feel stronger already from the month of September so I can’t wait to continue 🙂
I did the compound crusher yesterday with the incline challenge and it was a great workout. I was fatigued and a sweaty mess after the third round. My incline max was a 10% and it felt good to push myself. I did body pump today. I’m tired, tomorrow I’m taking the day off.
so awesome! hope you enjoy your rest day!
Looking forward to trying this in October. I recently did your Compound Crusher and I was in pain for the next 2 days but I loved the pain … it felt great to be able to complete that workout and it was such a great workout that could be done in a short amount of time. Can’t wait to try the other workouts listed on your calendar!
glad you got in an awesome workout! let me know how the rest go 🙂
Thanks so much for these! Couldn’t get to the gym today, so I did Solibeat instead! It’s been too long–I forgot how much I loved it (and how confused my cat gets watching me dance around the living room!)
yayyyy solibeat! so happy you enjoy it 🙂
Did the compound crusher workout + 2 miles on the treadmill in the hotel gym this morning. Sweat-tastic!
great job!! 🙂
I just wanted to leave a thankful message about this calendar – I appreciate it SO much! While I may not do everything “to the T”, I take what you create and make it work for me in my planner for the week/month. This morning I completed the leg workout + HIIT (to work off the turkey ha ha – Canadian Thanksgiving) and it was so easy to find what I needed, thanks to this super easy to navigate calendar/list of workouts.
Hoping you are having a great Tuesday, Gina!
awesome to hear that you’ve enjoyed it!! hope you had a lovely thanksgiving, too 🙂
The build & burn workout looks PERFECT for weekday morning workouts when I don’t have a lot of time. 🙂 Thank you!
I enjoyed following the workout calendar this month. The hubby and I just moved to the middle of nowhere and there isn’t a gym so I have to workout at home now, which I thought was going to be horrible, but thanks to your workouts I’m actually having fun with it. Thanks so much for creating this!!!
